rear cowl flap motor

[RRossner]

Tule River Aero Industry (the company that does the Riley conversions) have had nothing but problems with rear flap motors. 4 to be exact. Appearantly the motors that Owen Bell is sending out has the wrong gear ratio and the motor is burning it's self out trying to stay closed.

I don't believe it's a good idea to go w/ this 3rd party motor until they get the problem straightened out, especially given the fact that they don't really stand behind them 100%, at least they havn't with me and others that have had the same problems.
